NOTEBOOK Steelers vs. Bengals

Burress injured: Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Plaxico Burress pulled his left hamstring in the second quarter. "He didn't hear it pop, so that's a good thing," coach Bill Cowher said. Cowher wouldn't speculate on whether Burress will be sidelined.
Bell aggravated: Steelers linebacker Kendrell Bell aggravated a groin injury. "It could be a few weeks," Cowher said.
More hurting: Steelers defensive end Brett Keisel also hurt his hamstring.
Bengals' changes: With cornerback Deltha O'Neal sidelined by an elbow injury, second-round pick Keiwan Ratliff made his first start for the Bengals. Ratliff, who played his high school football in the Columbus area, is originally from Youngstown and has relatives in the area.
Bus number: Steelers running back Jerome Bettis has 12,863 career yards after Sunday's game, which was his 57th career 100-yard game.
